  • The Role of Islam in the Construction of the Foreign Economic Relations of the Republic of Indonesia
    Ph.D. Thesis — M.S. Williams McMaster University — Political Science ISLAM AND THE FOREIGN ECONOMIC RELATIONS OF INDONESIA 1 THE ROLE OF ISLAM IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE FOREIGN ECONOMIC RELATIONS OF THE REPUBLIC OF INDONESIA By MARK S. WILLIAMS, B.A.H, M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University © Copyright by Mark S. Williams, November 2012 Ph.D. Thesis — M.S. Williams McMaster University — Political Science DOCTORATE OF PHILOSOPHY (2012) McMaster University (Political Science) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: The Role of Islam in the Construction of the Foreign Economic Relations of the Republic of Indonesia AUTHOR: Mark S. Williams, B.A., M.A. SUPERVISOR: Professor Richard Stubbs NUMBER OF PAGES: viii, 280 ii Ph.D. Thesis — M.S. Williams McMaster University — Political Science Abstract American IPE has traditionally marginalized the role that social forces, and particularly religion, have played in the construction of the international political economy. This dissertation is an examination into the foreign economic relations of the Republic of Indonesia from the perspective of the British school of International Political Economy (IPE). British IPE is used to critically assess what role, if any, the religion of Islam has had in the construction of Indonesia’s foreign economic relations. This research demonstrates that Islamic social forces have influenced the political debates that construct Indonesia’s foreign economic relationships. Mainstream Islamic organizations pushed the state to engage with international institutions of trade and finance throughout the pre‐independence period when Indonesian national identity was being forged, as well as during the parliamentary democracy that followed independence, and into Sukarno’s “Guided Democracy.” The trend from the Suharto era to the early twenty‐first has been the appropriation of Islamic discourse by the state to legitimize its economic policies of engagement with the international political economy.

CURRENT DATA ON THE INDONESIAN MILITARY ELITE AFTER THE REORGANIZATION OF 1969-1970 (Prepared by the Editors) Periodically in the past, the editors of Indonesia have prepared lists of the officers holding key positions in the Indonesian army to keep readers abreast of developments. (See the issues of April 1967, October 1967, and April 1969). Until very recently, the important changes meredy involved individual officers. But on Armed Forces Day, October 5, 1969, General Suharto announced a major structural reorganization of the military hierarchy, and these changes were put into effect between November 1969 and April 1970. According to the military authorities, MThe concept of reorganization, which is aimed at integrating the armed forces, arose in 1966 after the communist coup attempt of 1965. The idea was based on the view that developing countries suffer from political instability due to con­ flict between competing groups."1 On October 6, the then Chief of Staff of the Department of Defense and Security, Lt. Gen. Sumitro, said that the integration of the armed forces "will prevent the occurrence of situations like those in Latin America where the seizure of power is always accompanied by activities on the part of one of the armed forces or individuals from the armed forces."2 The main thrust of the reorganization (for details of which see the footnotes) is in the direction of greatly increased centraliza­ tion of control within the Department of Defense and Security.

In this paper, the term "Indonesian coup" is used inter- changeably with "The 30 September Movement ," mainly for the sake of variety. It is technically correct to refer to the events in lndonesia as a "coup" in the literal sense of the word, meaning "a sudden, forceful stroke in politics." To the extent that the word has been accepted in common usage to mean "the sudden and forcible overthrow - of the government ," however, it may be misleading.

  • Power Politics and the Indonesian Military
    Downloaded by [University of Defence] at 20:05 09 May 2016 Power Politics and the Indonesian Military Throughout the post-war history of Indonesia, the military has played a key role in the politics of the country and in imposing unity on a fragmentary state. The collapse of the authoritarian New Order government of President Suharto weakened the state, and the armed forces briefly lost their grip on control of the archipelago. Under President Megawati, however, the military has again begun to assert itself, and to reimpose its heavy hand on control of the state, most notably in the fracturing outer provinces. This book, based on extensive original research, examines the role of the military in Indonesian politics. It looks at the role of the military histori- cally, examines the different ways in which it is involved in politics, and considers how the role of the military might develop in what is still an uncertain future. Damien Kingsbury is Head of Philosophical, International and Political Studies and Senior Lecturer in International Development at Deakin University, Victoria, Australia. He is the author or editor of several books, including The Politics of Indonesia (Second Edition, 2002), South-East Asia: A Political Profile (2001) and Indonesia: The Uncertain Transition (2001). His main area of work is in political development, in particular in assertions of self-determination.
